Are these made in China and is there any assurance they do not have lead in them or other toxic substances?

probably made in china. Couldn't find sticker that was on the bottom when it arrived but I recall the box and it seemed to be typical of chinese boxes. They are solid white and from my understanding the lead problem is a concern with colored items but I doubt whether there is any assurance that anything made in China is guaranteed to meet US safety standards. These are well made and heavy but if in doubt look for another.

My recollection is that it came from China. No assurance was given about lead or other toxics. Not asked but: I take this opportunity to note that the ceramic filter absorbs *a lot* of heat while the water drips through.

Yes, the sticker says Made in China, but the maker appears to be typical glazed pottery from a kiln. I doubt it has lead or anything else toxic. Could be wrong, but I use it every day.

Probably made in China... but it is a very high quality drip cone... I was very pleased with the quality when mine arrived.A month or so later I dropped it, and the handle broke off, as did some of the base... and it STILL works great. For a breakable... it is very very well madeRemember... Android and iPhones come from China, too... you can find good quality from China... if you look for it.

Hello Mary, I am happy to tell you how much I use these attractive containers! To answer your question about their being lead-free.....I do not know the answer answer to this question. However, they are manufactured in Italy and they are attractive as well as most handy! We use them for storing household items as well as food items. Please note that the jar top is solid--unlike the traditional canning jar that we use in the US with the ring and the inside part. They are used in our kitchen, in my sewing box, and at the make-up vanity. I hope that this response will be helpful to you.

Made in Spain. I assumed it was lead free since I bought it in California, but now I'm not sure.

No clue where they are made. Amazon should be able to tell you. I can tell you they are sturdy and have not rusted. I do not put them in dishwasher. Would definitely buy again.

Made in Malaysia, lead safe-not sure about paint. I haven't had any issues at all-we love ours!

I looked on the underside to find them stamped "certified lead free made in china". I took that at face value. Draw your own conclusion?

Says made in China...not sure about lead free, but we use them only occasionally (not constantly) so I was not overly concerned for that reason. I don't remember an overwhelming smell, so either it was not strong, or it was not offensive, or both, because I have been aware of strong smells like that with other new items. It has been great for my 4 1/2 yr old sons to somersault on, since we have brick floors in the room where their toys are! My husband also likes to sit or sprawl out on it when he plays games with them! I've done some stretching exercises on them, as well. Glad I bought it!

I believe that they are made in China. The packaging does not specify. However, the individual parts have English and Chinese characters on them. For me it does not matter as I have used these for a few years now with no issues.

to tell you the truth....I do not know, but I do not think so if I remember correctly, mind you it was a while ago that I looked at the packaging that they did not come from china but in from one of the states.........I hope this helps you out

No, they are made in China. That was a big issue with me when I bought mine (a year ago?) I complained to the reseller and to Amazon that the image used was misleading. If this question is still coming up, maybe nothing was changed.

No. These are high quality mugs. I researched them before buying. They are made in the USA without toxic materials in uncontaminated facilities. Virtually all others are from China where quality control can not be trusted. Our imports are rarely tested for toxic materials. Buy the Fiesta mugs with confidence.

I assumed they were lead free because it would have been noted on the package. Check with manufacturer.

They are made in China, but must have good quality control. Have used them daily for one year and they perform very well.

Good question, Melbee. I just checked and it does not reference that anywhere. At the bottom, however, it does say "Manufactured in China", so my guess is that it contains BPA. I guess it was not a concern when we bought these, because liquid only comes into contact with the plastic when you are pouring.
